I had a little trouble with making this frosting until I found this recipe. Using the double boiler method is the only way to go. Really good. Didn't use the coconut.

It doesn't taste like chantilly, yall from hawaii have been gone for too long to remember what it tastes like i'm going to assume. But it is a very good recipe. Maybe i must have done someting wrong Mahalo for trying!

I had great expectations after reading the great reviews, but it just wasn't that great. I was sad to use all of my macadamia nuts on a so-so recipe, but you never know until you try. I will keep looking for a great frosting recipe.

I was born and raise in Hawaii in Kailua-Kona on the big island, now in chicago. I was dying for some chantilly cake, came across this recipe and made it. It came out great, taste great, but not chantilly more germany chocolate frosting with the macadamia. Maybe it should be called Germany chocolate frosting and not Chantilly.

The flavor was good but i would suggest to use it as a filling. It was to thick and didn't look appetizing when it was all over the cake.

YUMMY! I made this to frost on a batch of dark chocolate cupcakes for a party and it was all I could do to keep myself from eating all of it out of the bowl. The party-goers raved as well.

Pretty good. A little on the liquidy side, not sure if that is how it is supposed to be. Everyone enjoyed, didn't realize this is like german cake frosting.

I love this recipe!!!!!!!! I used it on a carrot cake and it tasted divine. Its very easy to follow just dump the ingredients in a pot and heat. But dont make the mistake I did, dont put it in the refrigerator(it gets rock-solid).

Thank you for sharing this recipe. I live in Hawaii and my whole family loves Chantilly cake. I tried this recipe and they loved it, now we don't have to buy it at the store anymore which can be costly. But this is the easiest recipie to make.

This recipe is basically the same thing as a German Chocolate Cake frosting recipe, but with macadamia nuts. It had the right amount of sweetness and nuttiness. Thanks!

This frosting isn't very pretty but boy is it good. I used it as the filling layers between chocolate and vanilla cakes but then used regular buttercream on top. It went over QUITE well with the guests at my friend's baby shower. I highly recommend it. I made it with pecans instead of macadamias and it was great.

The icing is good, just make sure that you cook it long enough otherwise it will be runny.

This is exactly the same with the filling on the German Chocolate Cake III, it's delicious!! I used half brown sugar and half sugar though, the taste blended nicely with the coconut. I also used chopped pecans instead of macadamia. Will definitely try macadamia next time!

...thaaaaank you Linda! I have been dying to find a chantilly frosting recipe since forever! MMM...let's see.. from experience in working in a bakery (where we had to order chantilly from an outside company), chantilly goes great not only with chocolate cake, but ANY flavor cake. It makes yellow cake more buttery tasting... its great with lemon or carrot cake..and its also great with freshly-baked mini croissants too- slice them open, spread some chantilly inside, sprinkle some macadamia nuts in it, and drizzle the outside with melted chocolate... impress your houseguests with that elegant and delicious dessert...

I omitted the coconut and macadamias, and used it to frost mini chocolate cream puffs - it was just as good as the "cocoa puffs" from Liliha Bakery! Just make sure you use a big saucepan, because it bubbles and spits during the 12 minutes of stirring.

Very good. Was very nice on our French vanilla cake. Has a faint taste of caramel - so if you love coconut and caramels - this is the frosting for you! We actually prefer to warm this in the microwave and use it as a topping for ice cream!!
